Professor Messer - Seven Second Subnetting

  • Опубликовано: 19 мар 2017
  • Subnetting with (almost) zero math. In seven seconds or less!
    This is the subnetting procedure I use when taking a certification exam. If you're looking for a way to subnet that is fast, accurate, and simple, this is for you.
    I highly recommend that you understand the math behind the subnetting process before watching this video. There's a lot more to know about subnetting than what's in this video!
    You may want to reference my other videos that discuss binary math and binary-based subnet calculations:

    I spent 4 hours two days ago, 2 hours the day before that reading a lesson on subnetting and just not getting it. This video obliterated everything I needed to know in the entire lesson in a matter of minutes. Masterful work, Professor.

      Can you please tell me if on the exam they will ask to write all address out with broadcast, network address for each range (if the question asking to have 4 networks), like on his video 5:00. Or just what professor showed at the end, to be able to determine first, last, network, and broadcast address?

    • @baremetalhyperv
      @baremetalhyperv Год назад

      ​@@marinaivanova5863 It depends. On mine it was a mix of questions. I did mine last November. You will be able to get easy points by identifying the correct network space by glancing over multi choice options. I would test Messers method by picking an IP address and CIDR notation out of thin air and writing down your answers. Also take 2 minutes to draw up the table of masks with networks and addresses before your exam starts on the virtual whiteboard. I did this and it was super useful reference material. Sorry I know this comment is a year late but if it wont help you it might help others :)

      Someone taught me part of this years ago as I was studying for Net+ from CompTIA. I could NOT remember it, even when going through College. I never did get my CCNA in College; and never could remember the short cuts...though I knew they existed. Now I am being forced to get the CCNA if I want to stay employed... and I am so so so so glad I found this. This brought back everything from College; and from what my friend taught me--and added so much more to it! You are not kidding this makes it far simpler--and much faster than writing everything down! (I have tons of spreadsheets---you would have thought I had figured this out by now--but I was able to look at my spreadsheets (that I created myself) and go "Oh DUH... I did this--and didn't put 2+2 together in my head???"!)

A 20+min video that says seven second subnetting in it's title! Then I saw all his charts and I was like how is this going to help and how am i going to memorize this??? After practicing with the charts and how easy it is to remember them - I was like WOW! this is really easy and helpful! I was very skeptical in the beginning, but Mr Messer has come thru again!! Good job, Great video!!

    This is the only video I watched that explained a question that I had. If you have a /26, for example... WHY are there 4 networks? I had a suspicion that the 2 extra subnet bits were being manipulated to equate to 0 - 3, but not a single video out there explained that. Either they tried to make it too easy by using a table, or just glazed over that point and said that the 2 extra bits that were snagged out of the last octet gave you 4 networks without explaining why that is. So thank you for answering a question I spent all too long trying to figure out. I even took a CompTIA Net+ class through work and it wasn't explained. It's such a simple answer. Without answering that question, it didn't make sense how different host addresses landed you in different networks. Too many videos act like those bits are always on and that by choosing a /26, those 2 extra bits are static. Thank you very much for this video!
